That also signals that Berbatov may not be coming.

Anyway they should do one with their new 3rd kit. Special 3rd kit.

There isn't one, that explains the uneven-ness of the squad photo.

Damn right its fake!

Vidic clarifies Manchester criticism

Manchester United's defensive rock Nemanja Vidic has denied quotes attributed to him in Russian magazine Football Weekly.

The Serbia hard-man apparently spoke out about the dreadful weather in Manchester and expressed a desire to play in Spain in the future.

However, Vidic has attempted to defuse the row and stressed he was referring to his early days living in a hotel in a strange new city.

"I'd like to clarify that I did not make these particular remarks," he told United's official website.

"I spoke about the difficulty I had settling in to life in Manchester, but that does not reflect how I feel now.

"I enjoy my life very much as a footballer at Manchester United and I'm very happy to be a part of this great club. I think I show that in the way I play every week.

"I also have far too much respect for the people of Manchester, and England, to criticise them in this way."

A case of mistranslation or the latest United star wanting to quit Manchester? An interview with Red Devils' defender Nemanja Vidic is sure to cause a storm after the Serbian international was quoted as saying he loathed the climate in England and aimed to play in Spain.

Russian magazine Football Weekly this month carries an interview in which Vidic may well have placed his long-term Manchester United future in doubt.

The 26-year-old defender said he had found it hard to adapt to life in England, saying: 'I will never stay to live in England, that's for sure. You get only a brief glimpse of sunlight before it's all cloudy again. The winters are mild, but in summer the temperatures seldom go higher than 20C. And it rains, rains, rains.

And he had harsh words for the quality of life for the country where he arrived in January 2006 after a spell at Spartak Moscow.

'It's not only the weather that I'm not happy about here. In Russia and Serbia the people's way of life is similar. In England it's totally different. Here they just don't have time to feel the joy of life.

'Throughout the week they all work so hard. They only talk to people at lunch break. Then in the evening they come home and watch the telly, so they can get up early for work the next day.

'The only time to meet friends is at weekends, but for football players it's the busiest time of all. It was much easier for me to adapt to Russia than England. In England I had no one to talk to. The first month was especially hard. I lived alone in a hotel, which I left only for training. I thought I would go crazy inside those four walls.'

Following the summer-long tug-of-war over Cristiano Ronaldo, Vidic's words about his playing future will have a familiar air to United fans: 'In future, I would like to test myself in another top league. I'm thinking of Spain. At least there will be no reason to complain about the weather.

And Mancunian fans of the English and European champions may well take offence at the comment that 'in England, they say that Manchester is the city of rain. Its main attraction is considered to be the timetable at the railway station, where trains leave for other, less rainy cities.'

United and Vidic's next step will be one to look out for. ..

UNITED TO CALL ON ENGLAND PAIR

Gary Neville - set for Super Cup clash.

England duo Gary Neville and Owen Hargreaves will both be in Manchester United's Super Cup line-up in Monaco on Friday.

Sir Alex Ferguson has pledged to take the encounter with UEFA Cup winners Zenit St Petersburg seriously after losing out to Lazio the last time United played in the game following their Champions League triumph over Bayern Munich in 1999.

However, Ferguson also recognises the clash offers a perfect opportunity to give some match practice to some key figures within his squad. Neither Neville nor Hargreaves have played a competitive game for the Red Devils yet this season.

Hargreaves has been trying to overcome a tendinitis problem, while Neville has missed out due to the form of Wes Brown. Nani is also available having completed a three-match ban for his dismissal against West Ham last season.

Ryan Giggs should be fit as well after missing last night's win at Portsmouth with a hamstring problem. While the Super Cup would not normally be given such a high priority in the Old Trafford outfit's fixture calendar, reminders of nine years ago still grate at Ferguson, who is determined to beat Dick Advocaat's men this time around.

"I want to win," said the United boss. "I remember the last time we went there I only played half a team because we had a Monday league game against Newcastle. "When I saw Lazio celebrating at the end, it was like they had won the World Cup. "I was not too pleased. I thought, 'That will not happen again'."
